VOLUNTEERS at Compton Verney Art Gallery and Park have been honoured for their dedication.
They scooped two titles at the West Midlands Museum Development Volunteer Awards – the Museum Champion Team Award and the overall Judges’ Award.
Emily Medcraft, Compton Verney’s visitor experience manager, said: “This is a magnificent achievement that demonstrates not only how important our wonderful volunteers are to our operation, but also how the general awareness and recognition of the crucial importance of volunteers’ contributions to our sector is spreading.
“Without our volunteers’ invaluable expertise, enthusiasm and commitment, we would simply not be able to do half of the things we currently do. I would like to say a huge ‘thank you’ to all our splendid volunteers.”
The venue was also finalists in Warmest Welcome (Shuttle Drivers), Against the Odds (Paul Moss) and Collections (Ryan Young).
